German-Georgian Specialized Oncological Clinic is a private clinic located in Tbilisi, Georgia. Close collaboration with German clinics and research laboratories has enabled the clinic to study cord blood hematopoietic stem cells. These studies created a scientific basis for establishing a cord blood bank. A municipal grant from the city of Tbilisi allowed the clinic to establish a program for the support of families with oncohematological patients. The program collected and stored cord blood for families with oncohematological histories. This grant has also enabled the establishment of an autologous cord blood bank and created opportunity for cord blood banking in Georgia. Work on a national legal basis of cord blood banking together with the Ministry of Labor, Health and Social Affairs of Georgia is another important activity of the German-Georgian Oncological Clinic.
德-格专业肿瘤诊所是一家位于格鲁吉亚第比利斯的私立诊所。与德国诊所及研究实验室的紧密合作使该诊所能够对脐带血造血干细胞进行研究。这些研究为建立脐带血库奠定了科学基础。第比利斯市的一笔市政拨款使该诊所得以设立一项帮扶肿瘤血液病患者家庭的项目。该项目为有肿瘤血液病史的家庭采集并储存脐带血。这笔拨款还促成了自体脐带血库的建立，并为格鲁吉亚开展脐带血储存创造了机会。与格鲁吉亚劳动、卫生和社会事务部共同致力于脐带血储存的国家法律基础建设，是德-格肿瘤诊所的另一项重要活动。
